(17,635 posts)5. I'm west coast and i got up at 4 am....
....(because my dogs wanted to go out)...grabbed my coffee turned on tv and about 5am it happened. PARTY TIME!! Up until then, MSM had been bracing us for a lower level unknown to be busted for not signing something. Quite the opposite!!! Then about an hr later the 'pop a lot of populous' story broke. what a great day..
now we get to watch SHS spew talking points about tax reform.
I'm thinking.....the day AIN'T over yet!
